Diana vs Aurora

Updated Jun 1, 2026

Overview

Diana is a medium-pressure AP diver who wants to use Q+E+W burst combos to threaten Aurora early.
Focus on denying Aurora's low range and punishing her long, dodgeable Aurora E animation to prevent her from farming safely.

Trading pattern

Initiate trades by landing Q, then immediately E to reset and follow up with W for burst and shield.
Dodge Aurora E to avoid her slow and counter-trade effectively.
Exploit Aurora's low range by stepping forward during her long Aurora E animation to trade aggressively.

Danger windows

Avoid all-ins when Q is on cooldown or missed, as Diana becomes vulnerable.
Be cautious when Aurora's Aurora W is available, as she can dodge your Q and reposition.
Beware of Aurora's level 6 ultimate window; play around your R and shield timings.

Early game

Use level 3 power spike to execute Q+E+W trades with shield, forcing Aurora to play cautiously.
Punish Aurora after she uses Aurora W, as she loses her quick escape and is vulnerable to burst.
Avoid committing if Q misses or E is on cooldown, as Diana loses pressure and can be punished.

Power spikes

Major spikes: Level 3 unlocks full Q+E+W burst combo with shield; Level 6 R for all-in threat; first completed AP skirmish item.
Respect Aurora's level 6 ultimate for her burst and mobility potential.
Respect Aurora's first completed AP burst item as it increases her kill threat.

Win conditions

Use Q+E+W burst combos to punish Aurora's low range and long Aurora E animation.
Deny Aurora safe farming by pressuring after her Aurora W cooldown and dodging Aurora E.
Reach level 6 and item spikes to all-in with R and secure kills before Aurora can burst you down.

Tip: For Diana vs Aurora, read overview, trading pattern, and danger windows first for a fast Mid lane check.
